SEATTLE (AP) \u2014 Brian Johnson kicked a 33-yard field goal with 1:56 remaining in his NFL debut, and the New Orleans Saints capitalized on a series of Seattle mistakes for a 13-10 win over the Seahawks.<\/p>\n
Alvin Kamara carried the load for New Orleans and Jameis Winston made a handful of plays when needed. But the Saints escaped Seattle thanks largely to a series of blunders by the home team. Seattle was flagged for two crucial penalties on New Orleans\u2019 deciding drive. The Seahawks lost their third straight game for the first time since 2011 and fell to 0-3 at home.<\/p>\n
LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) \u2014 Chicago Bears coach Matt Nagy says he has tested positive for COVID-19. Nagy, who is vaccinated, announced the result during a Zoom call Monday minutes after his usual in-person session was switched. He said from his car he was feeling \u201cpretty good.\u201d<\/p>\n
Special teams coordinator Chris Tabor will run meetings that Nagy can\u2019t conduct virtually.

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The White House is zeroing in on a package of clean energy strategies for President Joe Biden\u2019s big domestic policy bill.

That’s according to a senior administration official who requested anonymity to share the plans. The emerging proposals would expand grants and loans in the agriculture and industrial sectors to help them make the shift to clean energy providers with fewer emissions.<\/p>\n
